1910 900. \ dividend OF $75 200 has been
paid to shareholders and there remains
OF surplus money in the hands OF the
treasurer the sum OF S2G2, 5l9.7j. In this
connection it is proper TO say that
splendidly equipped mill has been pur-
chased during the past year.
The long arms OF Utah men reach as
far as the Cuur d'Alene country, and the
following will interest them: Spokane
Miner, 18th: There is considerable eN-
citement in mining circles here in conse'
ouence OF the strong probability OF the
sale of the Sullivan and Bunker Hill
mines to Eastern parties for Sl,25O,OOO.
These are the properties the product OF
which Governor Hauser has concentrate,
to the amount of $4,000 tons. There IL
perhaps no better property in the country
than these two mines--they certainly are
the wonder of the present day. Old
miners turn away from inspection, con.
WINGED that life is too short to waste time
working upon Indifferent lodges in regions
that have proved no bonanzas.
Mr.. Jackson, one OF the kind OF miners
that would make any camp rich, brought
S3S worth OF gold up from the Gelatt
claim on Sunday, the result OF one weeks
work by himself on lease OF the bar
across the creek. Mr. jackson, it will be
remembered, found the 10la-ounce mug
get on the Gelatt claim in the mid-winter
of 1885.
The Mother" lode looks promising.
In the 55-foot tunnel rich free milling
quartz has been struck, and rich speci-
mems are promised. Mr.. Clark, who is
prosecuting the work, feels highly en-
couraged as time passes. He is still firm
in the belief that this mine will prove
one OF the richest in this section OF the
country.
The Mother" lode still holds out in
richness. The last clean up gave an
arastra average OF 1926 per ton. The
result was an amalgam retort oil B6 4
ounces and was made from six tons OF
ore The bar weighed 50 ounces and
seven penny weights, or at SIG per ounce
would value $1,000. The tailings,
carrying gold, unsaved, ii saved, would
certainly average for the ore 500 per
ton.
Two hundred tons OF ore at an average
of 800 per ton, awaits shipment from
Wardner Junction. This is largely the
product of the Bunker Hill and Sullivan
mines for the past four months, which
being but one-tifth of the present capac-
ity, would show pure silver at 500 per
ton in 10000 tons. As soon as the snow
passes away all mines in this region will
work to their fullest capacity, which will
largely increase the output.

comes from Burbank, Utah, OF fatal
shooting aflray which occurred at Bur

ut Ketchum s ranch, sixty miles west OF
here, shot and killed John q. Green
Ketchum, who had been away for year,
returned and secreted himself in the lott
OF the stable, and on Green's coming
from the house he shot him twice
with Il shotgun, killing him
instantly Del Hickman, Il stcpson OF
Ketchum's, came from the house and
shot five times at Ketchum, one ball
striking him in the abdomen, intliCting n
probably fatal wound. Ketchum shot
several times ut Hickman without
hitting him, although some OF the
shot perforated the sleeve OF his shirt.
Hickman gave himself up to the officers,
At last account Ketchum was living but
was expected hourly to die. Jealousy
was the presumed cause of the attack on
Green, but it is the almost unanimous
belief OF the neighbors that no such cause
existed except in Ketchum 5 Imagination.

SKAT, "ZiTKA."
A Poor Play in the Hands OF Fair
Actors.

Ii the late lamented William Carleton,
or any other man-whether late
lamented. or in Il fit condition to be
imagines that me can make play out Of
such material as that used in "Xitka, he
is very, very much mistaken.
If the said G.. G. Carleton thinks he can
make Il hero out OF the basest wretch on
earth, and an all-round ''Chump" OF the
first water-ii he thinks he can
screw the imagination Of an autence into
conceiving a sweet, pure girl falling in
love with the man who has violated her
beyond reparation--if he thinks he can
reverse the laws of nature and have the
women do the wooing-if he thinks he can
make happy couple out OF the outrager
and the outragcd-ii he thinks he
can twist the Car OF Russia leven such
a Car as the one in the play last night
about his finger to suit the conveniences
OF his watery play--ii he thinks he can
make people laugh at the brazen aban-
doning Of two accomplices in an unmen-
can make a NihIist mistake
thinks he can write play. Then, we
would say unto the late William, "Get
thee gone, thou art mistaken"
The play OF "Itka" is done by the
Miner Company about as well as such a
fake could be done The hero and hero
inc are both good, but could improve.
The other two guardsmen and the two
ladies do all that is required OF them, and
as a whole the company is by no means
below the average travelling combina-
ton.
The piece goes tonight ior the last
time.

Mrs. Fox,s pancake Tea.


On Tuesday evening last Mrs. VI. c.
Fox gave at her residence on Brigham
street, Pancake Tea Party" the first
of the kind ever given in this city. 1t is
an old English custom, and the parties
are always given on Shrove Tuesday the
day preceding Ash Wednesday, the first
day OF Lent-a fitting time to close the
winters festivities. 1t is the custom OF
the English or Episcopal Church on this
day to confess their sins, after which they
spend the remainder OF the day in amuse.
ments, and in England the amusements
have become OF fashionable character,
such as festive banquets, etc, and the
day now is known as Pancake Tues
day" from the common practice OF eating
pancakes; hence Il pancake tea party is
now the ultra fashionable way of closing
the merry social season preceding
Lent.
Mrs. Fox issued invitations to a few
friends, and at & o'clock the dining-rOom
was thrown open, and the scene that
here greeted the guests was perfectly
dazzling in its splendor, the room being
handsomely draped in red silk festoons
and other decorations. The table was
also dressed in pure natural flowers OF
red. The pancakes were served in
courses with honey, maple and other
syrups, sugars and, in fact, everything in
the way OF sweet edibles After the
feast was over an adjournment was taken
to the parlor, where Il social en-
tcrtainment followed, consisting OF
vocal and instrumental music, dancing
and games. The parlor game of keno
was introduced, and to the winners We're
presented neat and pretty prizes OF
| bangles and other elegant souvenirs.
At the close OF these amusements the
guests were treated to different repast
OF creams, ices and cakes, served in the
| parIors.
At exactly ~ o'clock the guests de-
parted, Ash Wednesday and Lent had
arrived, and the charming hostess who
had so novelty and elegantly entertained
her friends was babe goodnight.

cipients of invitations were:
